Woodturning - The Cookie Jar

Australian Chestnut with transparent blue resin cookie jar. When I was given this piece of wood, I saw that it had an interesting shape to its outside. I was torn between making a live edge bowl from it or cast it in transparent resin and turn it into something else. I chose the latter. When I first put this on the lathe, I intended to make a bowl. But as I turned it I changed my mind and decided on a cookie jar. The lid is made from a piece of wild Cherry with the knob made from Tasmanian Ironbark Burl. The wood for this bowl come from a local farmer who had to remove the tree due to damage. The transparent blue resin allows you to still see the shape of the wood and adds a colourful highlight to the jar.
It is available through my website.
